The car is actually built by a German tuning company as their 'interpretation' on the Z-Tune and scored a full feature in Speedhunters

Weather the seller is a genuine seller is another question

This has the V-Spec front splitter/diffuser with the 3 central air vents.

The Z-Tune front splitter/diffuser has 2 lateral air vents.

And the rear diffuser? Umm, well it's different... German fabricated?

I can just imagine the conversation with who ever buys one of these.

something like...

Some dude "Hey bro, is that a real Z tune?

Some other dude who owns a replica Z tune "Nah its a replica....pretty cool huh"

some dude "Yeah, what did it set you back?"

Some other dude who owns a replica Z-tune "Oh you know......more than a genuine one"

Some dude " :blink:"

Don't real z tunes have extra body bracing / seam welding in certain areas added during the rebuilding process?

Also didn't they use carbon fibre in the suspension towers (I read somewhere tranny tunnel as well but am unsure)?

Was suspension slightly redeigned as well (again am unsure)?

That ebay one just describes stripping and repainting, yeal z tune replica my backside.

rear diffuser is an ARC item. as with many other bits on it (exhaust, strut brace, coolers etc). mate the guy on ebay is most likely a kid in melbourne hoping to make a massive buck as a middle man. he clearly doesn't actually have a car. he just wants you to go to him instead of Japo (I have no idea why anyone would). he just sold his PS2 and recently purchased a scale model of a lamborghini so you can see his ebay trading record is stout.

I wouldn't buy it for about 50 different reasons but one of them is the name. who on earth actually WANTS a car called a "Japo Spec"? yeah that sounds soo much better than Nismo Z-tune..... :rolleyes:

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
